msxsl:script Element (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
Appears at the top level of the style sheet and contains script blocks that define global variables and functions for script extensions.
Syntax
<msxsl:script
language = "language-name"
implements-prefix = "prefix of user's namespace">
</msxsl:script>
Attributes
- language
Active Scripting language used for the functions defined within this element. If left unspecified, the current scripting language is used, as specified by a language attribute on an ancestor. If no such attribute exists, Microsoft® JScript® (compatible with ECMA 262 language specification) is used. This attribute accepts the same values as the language attribute on the HTML <SCRIPT> element.
- implements-prefix
[required] Declares a name space and associates it with the script block. The value of this attribute is the prefix that represents the name space.

Remarks
Belongs to the name space urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt. You can declare variables and define functions within the <msxsl:script> element. This can appear within the <xsl:stylesheet> element. A script block thus nested is treated as a global script block.
You can also instantiate COM objects in the <msxsl:script> element. However, a user's security settings may prevent your script from instantiating a client-side object.
Example
This example creates a script block with a namepace prefix of "user" that contains a function called "xml" that takes a node-list as an argument. Later, this function is called from the select attribute of <xsl:value-of>.
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
xmlns:user="http://mycompany.com/mynamespace"
version="1.0">
<msxsl:script language="JScript" implements-prefix="user">
function xml(nodelist) {
return nodelist.nextNode().xml;
}
</msxsl:script>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:value-of select="user:xml(.)"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
